Research Paper the Effect of Salinity Stress and Temperature Levels
Academia Journal of Medicinal Plants 9(6): 070-077, June 2021 DOI: 10.15413/ajmp.2021.0107 ISSN: 2315-7720 ©2021 Academia Publishing Research Paper The effect of salinity stress and temperature levels on germination characteristics of four medicinal plants seed Accepted 9th March, 2021 ABSTRACT Cultivation of medicinal plants has been economically beneficial for pharmacy and medicine. These plants are stores of active and valuable secondary metabolites that can be converted into various drugs, some of which are life-saving. However, it is difficult to start a large-scale and commercial cultivation of these plants because most of the arable land is used to produce strategically essential crops. Other uncultivable lands are often affected by various abiotic stresses, one of the most important of which is salinity. Germination of plants is one of the important stages during their growth period that is often affected by environmental stresses, especially salinity. In this study, the seeds of medicinal plants such as Lavender (Lavandula angustifolia), hyssop (Hyssopus officinalis), black cumin (Nigella sativa L.) and Scrophularia (Scrophularia striata) were subjected to salinity stress at 20, 25 and 30°C in order to determine the germination characteristics of their seeds. The results of this experiment generally showed that with increasing salinity stress at different temperatures, all germination characteristics including germination percentage, germination rate, shoot length, root length, shoot dry weight, root dry weight and seed vigor index decreased. It seemed that in order to Yousef Hakimi grow plants commercially, low salinity soil and water are needed to get the best yield.

Distribution and Significance of Hyssopus Officinalis (Labiatae) in Bulgaria
Jivka Cemeva Distribution and significance of Hyssopus officinalis (Labiatae) in Bulgaria Abstract Cerrneva, l.: Distribution and significance of Hyssopus officinalis (Labiatae) in Bulgaria. - Bocconea 5: 637-641. 1997. - ISSN 1120-4060. The contradictory data on the distribution of Hyssopus taxa in Bulgaria are reviewed. H. offi cinalis subsp. pilifer is the wild plant growing in stony places with a temperate-continental climate. lts occurrence in two regions (Znepole and Mt Vitosa) is confirmed, and its alleged presence in the Predbalkan, W. Stara planina, and Mt Rila is discussed. The wild plants con tain camphor, but not as much pinocamphone as the cultivated ones (H. officinalis subsp. officinalis), which is why the native populations cannot be used for perfumery purposes. Introdnction The generai aim of OUT investigations is to find Bulgarian plant taxa that can be used as new SOUTces of essential oils, and to review their distribution in the country. In the years 1989-1992, the distribution and characteristics of Hyssopus officinalis L. have thus been investigated. The essential oil of Hyssopus officinalis subsp. officinalis, distilled from the fresh dried plant material, is widely used in perfumery and cosmetics industry, in Bulgaria and else where in the world. The distribution of Hyssopus in Bulgaria has been recorded by many authors (Velenovsky 1891, 1898; Hayek 1931; Stojanov & Stefanov 1924-1925, 1933, 1948; Stojanov & al. 1967). Ancev (1989) accepts Hyssopus officinalis subsp. aristatus (Godr.) Briq. as the single Bulgarian taxon, given as being present in two floristic regions: Zne pole (Golo Bardo, Mt Konjavska, Cepan, and Ruj) and the Vitosa Mts (southern slopes).

Hyssop Herb Yield and Quality Depending on Harvest Term and Plant Spacing
Acta Sci. Pol., Hortorum Cultus 10(3) 2011, 331-342 HYSSOP HERB YIELD AND QUALITY DEPENDING ON HARVEST TERM AND PLANT SPACING GraĪyna ZawiĞlak University of Life Sciences in Lublin Abstract. Hyssop (Hyssopus officinalis L.) is an oil plant, acts antiseptically and stimu- lates digestion. It is applied both for curative and culinary purposes. Studies conducted in the years 2006–2008 were aimed at the effect of plant harvest term (mid June – plants in vegetative phase, mid July – beginning of flowering, mid August – full blooming, mid September – after flowering) and plant spacing (30 × 30, 40 × 40, 50 × 50 cm) upon yielding and quantity of hyssop herb. Studies were conducted at one-year plantation es- tablished from seedlings. Yield of fresh, dry herb and yield of herb without stems was significantly dependent upon the examined factors. Significantly greater fresh herb yield was obtained from plants after flowering (on average: 2.32 kg.m-2), just like the dry yield and yield of herb without stems. In the analysis of the effect of plant spacing upon hyssop yielding, it was revealed that the highest fresh herb yield (on average 1.47 kg.m-2) was from plants grown in the spacing of 40 × 40 cm, similarly to yield of the dry herb and yield of herb without stems. No significant effect of plant spacing was found on the con- tents of dry matter, L-ascorbic acid, chlorophyll, carotenoids, oil, tannins and flavonoids. It was demonstrated, however, that the harvest term significantly effects the contents of L-ascorbic acid, chlorophyll, carotenoids and essential oil in hyssop herb.

Lamiales – Synoptical Classification Vers
Lamiales – Synoptical classification vers. 2.6.2 (in prog.) Updated: 12 April, 2016 A Synoptical Classification of the Lamiales Version 2.6.2 (This is a working document) Compiled by Richard Olmstead With the help of: D. Albach, P. Beardsley, D. Bedigian, B. Bremer, P. Cantino, J. Chau, J. L. Clark, B. Drew, P. Garnock- Jones, S. Grose (Heydler), R. Harley, H.-D. Ihlenfeldt, B. Li, L. Lohmann, S. Mathews, L. McDade, K. Müller, E. Norman, N. O’Leary, B. Oxelman, J. Reveal, R. Scotland, J. Smith, D. Tank, E. Tripp, S. Wagstaff, E. Wallander, A. Weber, A. Wolfe, A. Wortley, N. Young, M. Zjhra, and many others [estimated 25 families, 1041 genera, and ca. 21,878 species in Lamiales] The goal of this project is to produce a working infraordinal classification of the Lamiales to genus with information on distribution and species richness. All recognized taxa will be clades; adherence to Linnaean ranks is optional. Synonymy is very incomplete (comprehensive synonymy is not a goal of the project, but could be incorporated). Although I anticipate producing a publishable version of this classification at a future date, my near- term goal is to produce a web-accessible version, which will be available to the public and which will be updated regularly through input from systematists familiar with taxa within the Lamiales. For further information on the project and to provide information for future versions, please contact R. Olmstead via email at [email protected], or by regular mail at: Department of Biology, Box 355325, University of Washington, Seattle WA 98195, USA.
